Title: WPT Marbella + Sides
Post by: pleno1 on February 13, 2012, 01:49:14 PM
Hi guys,


Proposal

I'm going to be playing the WPT Marbella and all the side events that it comes with on April 20th-April 27th. This includes a 1650 Euro main event, a good structured 770 side event, a couple smaller side events including a 6max and the "Spanish Open" aswell as an "Everest Cup" that I expect to generate alot of satalite qualifiers


Who am I?

I currently live in Gibraltar working for PokerStrategy.com

I have just started making strategy videos for the site - http://www.pokerstrategy.com/video/22794/
I currently play 400nl online
I haven't played too many tournaments, but last year I did a package and cashes 2/6 tournaments   http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=207359
Played a lot of live cash over the last 4/5 years, happy playing deepstack cash and played alot against Spanish guys over the last 12 months that I have lived here

The Schedule

Spanish players are absolutely terrible, even worse than Italians Tikay, this package is more than just a main event and gives us 6 shots at riding the variance. All comps have good structures. The below clip sums up Spanish poker to a tee, every night things like this happen :D

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKsV6oqZW38

April 20th - 1650 (euro) main event
April 22nd - 770  (euro) Everest Cup
April 23rd  - 330 (euro) Spanish Open
April 24th - 440 (euro) PokerTraveller side
April 25th - 220 (euro) Marbella cup
April 26th - 330 (euro) PokerTraveller 6max

Total buy ins = 3740 (euro)

Selling 40% (although will play no matter how much I sell)  at 1.15 which I believe to be fair/good value for us.

I've locked in XE currency rates which is currently  1.197
So

5% = 215.50 euro  £180
10% = 430.10 euro £360
40% = 1720  euro  £1440

Payment Method


You can pay me via Moneybookers or a UK Bank Transfer.

I will return all money via Bank Transfer or Moneybookers.


Thanks for your time, Patrick.




NOTES:

If I win, all % will be transferred over onto any other tournaments (WPT champs of champs etc) that happens

As all tournaments are on consecutive days, if I run deep in the main event or if I am in day 2, really tired and can't play because I cashed at 5am and next tournament is at 12pm then I will not play and refund.

Post by: pleno1 on April 19, 2012, 02:09:31 PM
going to enter day1b if i bust day 1a on the friday, thiunk theres gonna be alot of value, will obviously not bust the day1a if im short though and will play nitty if needs be.

if you want the same %'s in day1b as you have or rest of the tournaments either post itt, message me or bank xfer to me. as long as you post before saturday its fine, but hopefully we wouldn't need this bullet anyway.

feeling in good form and had a really good month, so if you really dont want  a % I'm more than happy to have my own action.

let me know either way please
